New location for finding out about Calgary’s Music scene – via Culture Bully! Oh, and a couple of mp3’s from Calgary’s own Chad VanGaalen.
Two recommendations from bands that slow it down for their first appearance on Slowcoustic. Cavalier Rose and The Longwalls provide the music, dig in.
Monday playlist featuring The Middle East, White Hinterland, Emily Jane White, Ghostkeeper, Glass Cake and Share!
Two sides of the same coin. Six of one, half dozen of the other. You know what I am getting at, two versions of one artist’s music.
Upcoming Damien Jurado album “Saint Bartlett” gets a advance promo track (mp3 included). The album will be released May 25, 2010!
Enjoy two recommendations for today for “Lisa Will Insult You, Darling” (with mp3) and “Evening Chorus” (with new video)!
Round up of some recent happenings alongside some upcoming events with a few musical offerings for good measure!
Bowerbirds show me (by mere coincidence) that they are cheering for Canadian Olympic Gold….yeah, that’s it…

While talking with another artist that will be upcoming on the blog, he indicated Mr. Adam Selzer (of Norfolk & Western fame) had recorded his album. This got me to thinking…”damn his EP on Hinah Records was good” and absolutely free. Everybody loves free things, and despite what your parents …
